If I remember right, these were all restored by Bob Uszaszi, so the quality and accuracy is without question.
But I could be wrong, so don’t quote me on that. Lol!

That Traverse Green/Robins Egg Blue, B-107 is fabulous!
Just the way I would’ve ordered it, if I had a time machine.

No prices except does not come with a seat that's worth $2600?

 

[cyclingday]

$30,000 for the collection is what I heard.

$30,000 for the collection is what I heard.

So the simple math says $6k a pop which is way over the money in my book!

he certainly stepped up on purchasing these bike from me over the years...The Dark Red B6 was 100% NOS parts build aside from the #9 condition frame. Owner was active in the early pedal pusher days of collecting so he told me. A pleasure
to do restos for, he has very good taste etc.
We are always sticker shocked at the cost of restored bikes...
but then, how many of us actually do this sort of work and know how laborious and expensive it is?
...add up the hours and expense....and keep in mind NO bike shop in the US or verrrry few I
would imagine, do this sort of work.
Honestly...even at the asking prices... nice restored bikes are undervalued as collectibles.
or go spend 10K+ on a 67 Hotwheels in blister pack...

The 1%'ers should be gobbling stuff up like this...chump change for them.
Most have no taste and spend money on lavish frivolous bling BS
